Re: Lee: Re: smail Solution for Dynamic IP's



Sorry for the previous empty message.

Art, is your local user name alemas?  My problem is that if I use my isp
for the visible name, I get a "from bradshaw@mindspring.com".  Notice
there is no colon after the from.  This is localuser@visiblename.
Unfortunately my email address is lee.bradshaw and my login on the local
system is bradshaw.  I think with this "from " line incorrect mindspring
sets the "Return-Path: <bradshaw@mindspring.com>" which sends my bounced
email to another user.  visible_name needs to be something that can
be looked up, because my email seems to be rejected when I use "from
bradshaw@home.bradshaw".  The "From: lee.bradshaw@mindspring.com" is
correct, but I haven't found a way to modify the username part of the
"from " line to replace bradshaw with lee.bradshaw.
